Founded in 1776 and still independently owned by the Rouzaud family, the estate farms a significant portion of its own vineyards and is known for its commitment to biodynamic viticulture, precision farming and minimal intervention winemaking. While Cristal is its most famous wine, the Collection range represents the house's most modern and intellectual expression. Collection 246 is built around the 2020 base vintage and blended with a perpetual reserve system — a living library of previous vintages that adds depth, continuity and complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCitrus, mirabelle plum and ripe orchard fruit define the aromatics, supported by subtle toasted brioche and fine mineral undertones.
